According to Cointelegraph, after the U.S. presidential election, high-risk DeFi loans surged. IntoTheBlock data shows that these loans are collateralized by volatile assets close to the liquidation threshold.

Evaa Protocol co-founder Alexander Sudeykin stated that while large-scale liquidations could impact the crypto market, they are unlikely to lead to a price crash. The maturity of the DeFi sector has increased its resilience to market fluctuations.

Curve Finance founder Michael Egorov was liquidated for over $100 million in loans due to market volatility caused by a hacker attack.

As of the time of publication, high-risk loans on the Benqi protocol are close to $5 million, with total debt exceeding $115 million.
